[metalupyourass]

haha. i dont like just them bands you know!

i got carried away on that post..my music taste shud not be judged on 1 post

[Salt_On_Everything]

and i've hoped you've learnt an important lesson. don't open your posting career on the DOWNLOAD forums by shouting on about how shit Download is. funnily enough, people might disagree.

[ampersand]

so yeah, someone said theres clashes between emo and metal at download.

is this true, and is it nothing more than we've seen here or is it worse?

cos i cannae be arsed wi that shite in person.

im not an emo kid, infact im far from it! indie is anythin :| dont like that though!

Figure I'll get in on the Download line up arguments...

I'm not sure about the Download line up this year either tbh, I guess I'm just too young for alot of it. Most of the bands were past it when I started listening to rock music, it amazes me so many of them can still get a top 3 slot at a festival the size of Download but that's just a testament to the state of rock and metal at the moment in the mainstream I guess.

Even Slipknot seems an odd choice for headliner, I swear they were far more relevent when they were second headliners the past few times they did Download?

But yeah, there are bands I want to see but so far nothing has blown me away and there's no one making me want to instantly book my ticket tommorow. I'd imagine the depth will come through in the end, should be the lower stages I find the most value anyway, and I doubt we've got many bands for those.

I've never seen anything bad or that at Download. There isn't any trouble realy.

[Salt_On_Everything]

people who do that are bloody pricks. i think emo is shite, but i'm quite happy to laugh quietly in the knowledge of my superior music taste, violence is a f**king idiots way to do things.

[Matticus]

yeah i love my metal, but the times ive been to download ive ended up chuckling not at the emo kids, but the metal heads, most of them are just super nerds who go on about how metal they are. black leather and studs doesnt make you metal, just a bit camp and funny to look at

whats the vibe like compared to rockness?

[ampersand]

less neds, less E, more manly roars round a campfire while playing thrash metal in the background

Going further off topic

Does anyone have a map of the campsite?

The first time i went to T i knew the camp mapsite off by heart and what there was to do but so far no idea what there is to do in the campsite at Download

[ampersand]

Download is more tolerant I'd say. You could wear what the f**k you want and nobody would bat an eyelid. There's hundereds to do in the campsite Wed and Thurs and Fri Sat Sun nights with Burlesque, comedians, guitar hero comps, rock karaoke, huge fair ground and cinema, etc. Download has a better vibe I'd say as it is bigger but still feels relaxed.
